OPI Summer 2021 Malibu Collection | Coastal Sand-tuary:

A soft creamy beige, Coastal Sand-tuary is very pretty but the formulation is challenging to work with. The color is patchy and sheer, I needed four coats for the swatches below although with a skillful application, you can probably get away with three.

OPI Summer 2021 Malibu Collection | Bonfire Serenade:

A soft mocha taupe, Bonfire Serenade is creamy and easy to work with. The formulation is not super pigmented but I was able to get a mostly full coverage with two coats.

OPI Summer 2021 Malibu Collection | PCH Love Song:

A bright sunny orange with a hint of golden shimmers, PCH Love Song is probably my favorite shade from this collection. The color is so bold and eye-catching and the formulation is creamy and pigmented. I used two coats for the swatches below.

Another shimmer in the collection, The Sound of Vibrance is a bright purple scattered with iridescent blue shimmers. Similar to PCH Love Song, the formulation is nice and pigmented.
